Difference between Democrats and Republicans
2006-05-05
...Dean took a swipe at the Republican Party, saying the Democratic Party is one of inclusion and religious freedom.

"I was recently asked about the difference between the Democratic and Republican parties," Dean said. "When it comes right down to it, the essential difference is that the Democrats fundamentally believe it is important to make sure that American Jews feel comfortable being American Jews."

#14  Blondie: Not sure exactly why but Bill Clinton has a ..... special place in his heart for folks with "mysterious blood diseases" like the one that FINALLY sent Yasser on down the road.

#13  The Democrats love the Jews so much that Bill & Hill's most frequent foreign guest to the White House was Yasser Arafat, someone who dedicated his life to killing Jews.

(Have to like the article, however. Right after that choice quote from Screamin' Dean, they mention that the chairman of the RNC is Jewish. Didn't think the Seattle P-I had it in them....)

#12  When you watch the debates in Congress on C-SPAN(1-3) its quite obvious that a significant portion of the democrats need some additional brain neurons. Another large group need Luvox and a controlling core need ethics.

#11  My Mom used to say that the difference between the Democrats and the Republicans was that one gets us into wars and the other screws up the economy. I can no longer remember which was which.

#10  it isn't meant to be understood-- it's meant to be believed. Fervently.

I'm getting that feeling, too.

#9  "American Jews feel comfortable being American Jews"

I guess it means the Democrats want to make Israel go away.

#8  "I don't understand Dean's comment on any level? WTF?"

Like most of what the Dummycrats say anymore, it isn't meant to be understood-- it's meant to be believed. Fervently.

#4  I like Jeff Goldstein's take on this: Why can't "American Jews" just be comfortable being Americans?

(paraphrasing -- essentially, he's sick of the ethnic identity crap)

#3  Fact: the left symbolized by Howard Dean loves jews like Noam Chomsky. If they are supporters of Irael or religious Jews they hate them. They love the PLO , Hamas and Hizboalah more than any jew of any kind. That is just the truth by all the evidence i can see.

#2  Funny!

I aways thought that:
Democrats were children!
Republicans were adults!
The rest was just noise to obscure this fact.

#1  That works with other ethnic groups, too.

Sort of takes the word "patronizing" to a whole new level.
